Well, I'm jewish, so today's my bar-mitzvah. Hopefully I won't mess up. Most of my relatives and all of my friends are coming, so it'll be fun. Meh, the only problem is that I have a slight sore throat, but I'll just have to deal with it. Um, wish me luck.. I may need it.

EDIT: ugh, I typoed the title...

*Fixes thread title*

Well, good luck with your Bar Mitzvah, then. Care to elaborate on just what one does during a Bar Mitzvah for those of us who are not Jewish? (I know the general stuff, from what I've learned in school, but always cool to hear from someone with first-hand experience)

How it worksis that for 6 months I've been studying the hebrew required. On my bar-mitzvah (in a few hours) It is liike a normal service, only instead of the Rabbi leading it, I do most of that. Then, when it is time time to read the torah, I do that as well. I read 21 verses , but there are no vowels in the torah.. and there are a lot of special prayers for that day. Also, I have to say a speech that I wrote about my torah portion. Basically, it is the becoming a Jewish adult. Anyway, a lot of people come, and after it is over I get to have a party

Is Bar Mitzvah the same for the jewish as the confirmation is for the christians?

Hebrewish is a intresting language, the only hebrew word I can is nod. "To wander"

I know some Hebrew, because I took a year of it in school.

But to answer your question, it's actually a bit different. They kinda lead to the same aftermath, but the idea behind what they are supposed to do are slightly different from each other, I think.

Ah, good that you explained what Bar Mitzwah was, Kitten Yiffer. Good luck with you Bar Mitzwah then, Wlokos.

The only word I know in Hebrewish is the word for Peace.

I went to my friend's Banai Mitzvah (sp?) party a long time ago, but not the service. The party was pretty cool. Don't be too nervous, I'm sure you do fine with your readings and such.
